Face Painting Kits: Add that Glitter and Glam to Any Event or Party

Whether you are celebrating a birthday or a festival, if you are going to host a party, you always need to think of innovative ways to keep the kids engaged. While there are plenty of possibilities, the one thing you can always rely on is the dress-up trick. No matter how old they are, most kids love to get into the avatar of their favourite animated character, or superhero. And whether or not you make that a theme of the party, you can certainly let them play with colours to try face painting or temporary tattoos.

At Raaaft, we stock oodles of glitters and colours that will ensure that your kiddie guests can explore their creativity safely, with the highest quality paints. Moreover, face painting is hugely popular amongst people of all ages. So don’t be surprised if the adults in your party are also curious to try a design or two. Remember what the great Pablo Picasso said, “Every child is an artist, the problem is staying an artist once you grow up.”

The Tradition of Face Painting

Apart from being an entertainment activity at fairs and functions, face painting is an intrinsic part of many cultures across the world. For instance:

Several communities in South East Asia have a tradition of beautifying their brides and grooms by painting their faces, hands and legs with henna or sandalwood.

Indigenous tribes and Aboriginals even today use face and body painting for their rituals and dances. While some tribes use masks carved out of wood, others use mud, coloured clay, or pigments extracted from the natural resources available in their surroundings.

Traditionally warriors used symbolic images on their face and body to display their heroic feats, or as a tribute to their spiritual guides. Even today, defence personnel across the world use face paints for camouflaging themselves when they venture into dangerous territories.

In fact, some archaeologists believe that modern day cosmetics may also have their roots in the tradition of face painting. After all, most human beings have an intrinsic need to transform and beautify themselves. Make-up, masks, face paints, tattoos, or piercings are just some of the ways to address that need.
